A socially inept unicorn stallion studying surgery, sharing a house with his freeloading freelancing sister and a tease of a fashion designer whose products are often far from family friendly. Also in their circle of friends are a polite if peculiar owner of an enchantment shop, and a self-conscious psychoanalyzing weather pegasus. Throw in some college drama, awkward encounters, and various levels of romance and what do you get?
Simple lives that suddenly are not so. It's only once you get to know ponies that things both similar and different start to accentuate themselves. Who knows what lasting effects that might have...

Wow, this story looks interesting. Nice to see a story focused only on Silk String. Although I wonder if this is a prequel or an alternate universe where she'd meet Rhino and Gel later on, if at all. Thanks for making another entertaining story. Have a fav and a like.
5423429 Much appreciated! It's Silk Tease though. This is considered a separate universe from my other ones, but I won't spoil the character roster for now. ; P
Ooh! New characters!
Silk is still Silk. Never change!
Keep going! ;)
I like the interaction between Silk and Limelight. They both seem to be BFF material. Likewise, I enjoy that Silk wants to help Winter become more confident.
5433258 She's a helping kind of pony in her way.
Hmm quasi-legal freelance job. Potential cross-advertising in the future?
Keep going! ;)
Wonder what the store is going to look like? Seems like its gonna be fun!
Really enjoyed Silk's friendly attitude, especially with Asylum. BTW, kitty Assylum sounds adorable.
What about reaction four? Passing out from mental imagery of cuteness!
Keep going! ;)
Nice to see Rhino appears even if it's as a supporting character. It seems he already met Silk beforehand. Can't wait to figure out how Silk and Rhino's relationships is like in this story. Also, I enjoy the fact that Winter behaves more confidently around Silk. Keep up the good job.
Changeling in the basement? Gel? O-o (based on hearing 'she')
5465040 what's to say "she" isn't a mechanism of some sort? Genders are often assigned to inanimate objects for some reason after all.
Actually, barring some really interesting turn of events, we don't really expect to see Gel at all this time.... At least, if the story summary projected plot are anything to go by.
I can say it's nice Rhino has his own shop finally. How things can be so different...
Keep going! ;)
5466309 you do have a point... (I know that you can refer to a boat as a she... At least in my language)
Buuuuut... I hope Gel will show up soon (Silk's friend?)
Anyways, keep up the awesome story Rhino
OK, this chapter was sexy and fun. I really liked the interaction between Silk and Asylum, it's obvious that they're comfortable with each other if they're capable of conversing about their love lives and play strip games without wanting to jump each other's bones. Asylum is really adorable, yet surprisingly kinky, and I found her interest in Rhino and her past with Winter to be entertaining. For a second, Asylum reminded me of Angel/Gel...unless she happens to be Gel/Angel. The dares were sexy yet fun...I really envy that pizza colt. In a way, you're my favorite romantic writer in Fimfiction as you can make girls comfortable in their sexuality like Silk, Angel, and Asylum without turning them into sex objects and have them have fun with each other without making them perverted. Likewise, their interests on good guys like Rhino or Winter makes their courting/relationship with them feel more organic than most relationships/dating in other stories. You really have talent as a writer and I thank you for this entertaining chapter.
5475906 Asylum is not Gel, she's her own character; just throwing that out there. But good to know you're liking it!
5466503 It's unlikely Gel will appear, since she's written by enigmaMystere, who isn't helping with this story. Asylum kind of has a similar role, though.
I enjoyed how comfortable Silk and Winter are with each other to form a trial relationship. As usual, the romance you write is great. I wish that romance in the real world were as easy as the one you portray. Anyhow, thanks for the great chapter.
i love this story just as good as all your others.
i just wish you would slow down on the intimacy jumps but that's just my opinion.
Heh, that escalated fairly quickly.
Keep going! ;)
5493193 That just happens when we go with what feels natural. Consider it just part of their character to be so affectionate.
A mare being clear about what she wants instead of being coy and misdirecting?
5500035 Silk may be coy, but one thing she isn't is misdirecting. She tells you what she wants, sometimes far more forward than you want to hear it. Besides, she knew it was best to make her intentions clear, since they were muddled at first.
I love the intimate way that Silk and Winter get along. All beginning relationships should be as close as this. Anyway, I like the fact that the secret project has finally been revealed. Thanks for the great chapter.
So he's making a pair of fake wings... Neat
Moar!
God damit, Silk and Winter are so adorable!
I knew it was wings! Too bad we didn't call it out (I think), that would be embarrassing....
So, jetpack wings? Assuming they don't actually flap...
Keep going! ;)
Winter and Rhino's friendship is hilarious and I liked how Winter's sister misunderstood the talk about horn sizes for penis sizes. Classic.
Wait, I seem to have forgotten, is Winter's horn unusually shaped? Also, why did she think they were comparing.... Oh. Oh gosh, I.... Well, learn something new every day?
We can't help but imagine the gem functions like Iron Man's Arc Reactor, without the glowy stuff.
Keep going! ;)
5531175 His horn is curved slightly. There's a reason for that in the other stories he's in, but in this one, it's just a birth defect.
This date chapter was adorable.
The moment Asylum faltered it started coming together, why Winter is anxiously engaged in such a specific project.
When they went for the thermos containers I wondered if they would pick the wrong ones.the entire scene was pretty fun overall.
Keep going! ;)
If only Silk would set me up with somepony like that.
Well, after reading this chapter Infelt significantly better than I did before...
As always, great job
Cloud clothes.... Cool
This type of scenes attract readers. Still, love the teasing humor.
Nice and calm.
Keep going! ;)
I must say the friendship between Asykum is sexy yet intimate. They bith can act sexy with each other yet still be friends rather than lovers and they are very open about their concerns about life and relationships. You really know how to make the interactions between your characters interesting.
Good fun.
Keep going! ;)
Man, that escalated quickly. Still, glad to see that the guys want to be sure that the girls are wanting and willing to sleep with them rather than because the heat said so. Nice chapter.
I'm not sure why, though I'd actually prefer if the potion wouldn't work... At least for one of them (maybe it got old or something)
Great chapter, too ^^
Bow chicks Bow wow!
Nice chapter.
80 seconds seems quite long for an equine. Nice!
Keep going! ;)
5755604 It was meant as in "round eighty-two", not a round that lasts eighty seconds.
5759403 oh gosh, that's almost terrifying!
walking funny the next morning wouldn't do justice!
5760147 it was over a week.
5760178 yeah, we totally misinterpreted the thing as a whole it seems.
Just shows I need sum learnin' !
Lets see. Pieces of metal being enchanted similarly to guard armor, measurements of Asylum's body and wings, an being injured by carelessness. Winter is obviously building an "Iron Mare" suit!
Or a pair of Icarus Wings...
